In this way, the invention receives and processes raw interaction data from one or more deployed micro services. The framework subsequently provides for advanced operational execution not possible by the micro services. The processing of the interaction data includes machine learning predictive analytics framework and business rule application. As such, the system may learn from the data received at the micro servers in real-time and continue to monitor the raw interaction data based on the implemented business rules and machine learning to issue future alerts if necessary. Furthermore, the system may calculate analytics and perform advanced operation executions based on the demands/requests and/or rules. Finally the framework presents data in an interface picture format based on the calculated analytics.

BACKGROUND

The emergence of new technologies has changed the way consumers interact with organizations they choose to do business with. Companies today are using multiple channels to interact with users and are taking steps to amplify the voice of the user within their organizations. Assessing and communicating the channel usage and activity across the entire organization is challenging. Furthermore, compiling this data may be done via a tightly coupled architecture that, upon change, may affect other aspects of the organization's infrastructure.

BRIEF SUMMARY

The following presents a simplified summary of one or more embodiments of the invention in order to provide a basic understanding of such embodiments. This summary is not an extensive overview of all contemplated embodiments, and is intended to neither identify key or critical elements of all embodiments, nor delineate the scope of any or all embodiments. Its sole purpose is to present some concepts of one or more embodiments in a simplified form as a prelude to the more detailed description that is presented later.

Embodiments of the present invention address the above needs and/or achieve other advantages by providing apparatuses (e.g., a system, computer program product, and/or other device) and methods providing a system framework for processing interaction data from channel contacts and perform advanced operation executions based on machine learning, business rules, and/or requests.

Typically, data received based on communications with users at a merchant or entity may be in a silo or compartmentalized format. In this way, the channel that receives the user communication, may not have means to accurately and effectively disseminate the user information across a large entity. As such, a need exists for a non-silo driven view of user interactions with the entity. Specifically, the system extracts all user channel interactions (entity initiated and user initiated) and generates a hub with commonly encrypted data for easy access and view of user interactions with the entity. This is a unique high ingestion real-time system of data collection that specializes in real-time high ingestion decryption of unstructured data for storage and accessibility in a format readable by a general computer. Critically, the high ingestion decryption of unstructured data by the system allows a computer to read and search user connections with each channel, without this system, a computer device may not be able to access the data from a compatibility standpoint.

Once the user interactions on the various one or more channels are digested and integrated, a value added processing implementation of the system may be utilized. The value added processing scrubs the real-time data received and categorized the data within the hub of the system. In this way, the data is transformed from a line data that was ingested in real-time from a channel into event data capable of manipulation and augmentation within the system hub.

In some embodiments, the data from user interactions received from the one or more channels may be identified as being from unauthorized nodes. These nodes may be collected, identified and monitored to further implement unauthorization or misappropriation steps by the entity.

Once the interactions are digested and event data capable of manipulation and augmentation, the system may store the data in a searchable format in the hub. Furthermore, the system may provide the event data back to the channel via an application programming interface to provide fast response to the channel. In this way, the event data may be extracted and transformed into a readable format in a data repository or database. Furthermore, in order for the event data to be searchable in the hub, it must be identified as being associated with a user. As such, the channel must require an authentication from the user in order to be processed as event data. In this way, the user may be required to log into a website, mobile application, automated teller machine, entity, or the like. As such, the system may identify tags as the event data is being gathered in real-time, these tags identify the authentication requirements and provide the taxonomy details of the data to drive search capabilities of the data.

The event data may then be used to query logs of users, pull or extract the data from the database for market research, set up message queues, identify new source data, track errors that occur in system and channel communications, or the like.

In some embodiments, the multi-threaded data collection process is performed by micro services. These micro services are created to provide one function within the data collection process. The micro services are built as small transferable modules to be a single function high efficiency small module. In this way, the constructed micro services do not require high end server networks to run, but instead run via a simplistic process. In this way, the data collection process is easily constructed using one or more various micro services based on the entities required needs. These micro services or widgets may be developed and deployed at an interface level, such that associates within the entity may utilize the micro service to access data via any channel. Thus, the micro service may be stored on an associate machine and access the same data at every time, in a refreshed format. In this way, the associate may receive channel usage, access identification, account lifecycle information, account maintenance information, appointments, browsing, card data, communications, complaints, user maintenance, user transactions, inputs, document requests, software requests, offers provided to the user, and the like for each channel or for each user. The information provide to the associate may include one or more pictures of each of the requests based on the widget/micro service used by the associate.

Embodiments of the invention relate to systems, methods, and computer program products for creating an interaction data framework for advanced operation executions, the invention comprising: building one or more micro services module for a single function, wherein the one or more micro services are built for data extraction between one or more interaction channels utilized by an entity; deploying the one or more micro services at an interface level; receiving from the deployed one or more micro services the interaction data via a generated secure communicable link; extracting pivot data associated with a user, wherein the pivot data includes user actions associated with entity provided products; constructing a machine learning application for application to interaction date and pivot data in real-time; allowing for input of one or more rules to the interaction data and pivot data, wherein the rules identify one or more triggers based on the applied business rules, wherein based on the identification of on one or more triggers present an alert to an associate; receiving a request for real-time analytics analysis of the interaction data and the pivot data; transforming, via structuring and rearranging, the interaction data and pivot data to a structured format based on the received request, the applied applications, and/or rules via performing advanced operation executions; and presenting, based on the request, an interface picture of the requested analytics data.

In some embodiments, machine learning applications comprise learning user channel interaction tendencies based on real-time data collected by micro services illustrating user channel interactions with the entity.

In some embodiments, receiving from the deployed one or more micro services the interaction data via a generated secure communicable link further comprises using an alternate secure communicable link to direct the interaction data in an unstructured form to a stand-alone database architecture.

In some embodiments, the invention further comprises establishing a communication link with the one or more interaction channels, wherein the one or more interaction channels are capable of being accessed by a user using a user device, wherein the one or more interaction channels are associated with an entity. In some embodiments, the one or more interaction channels comprises an authenticated channel and an unauthentication channel, wherein authenticated channels are interaction channels directly associated with the entity, wherein the unauthenticated interaction channels are indirectly associated with the entity, whereby data received via the established communication link with the authentication interaction channel is confirmed associated with the user based on the user authentication into the channel.

In some embodiments, deploying the one or more micro services at an interface level is based on a request or requirement to extract data from a specific channel in accordance with the single function of the one or more micro services.

In some embodiments, the interface level is a level of storage on a device of an associate associated with the entity, wherein the one or more micro serves are deployed and stored on the device of the associate.

In some embodiments, the interaction data extracted from each of the one or more interaction channels via the micro services is in a raw unstructured format and is associated with a confidence level, wherein the confidence level associated with the interaction data received from authenticated channels is greater than the confidence level associated with the data received from unauthenticated channels, wherein the confidence levels are an indication of a reliability of the interaction data being a user interaction.

Memory may also include non-volatile memory, which may be embedded and/or may be removable. The non-volatile memory may additionally or alternatively include an EEPROM, flash memory, and/or the like. The memory may store any one or more of pieces of information and data used by the system in which it resides to implement the functions of that system. In this regard, the system may utilize the volatile memory over the non-volatile memory by storing multiple pieces of information in the volatile memory, thereby reducing the load on the system and increasing the processing speed.

The memory 166 includes the associate application 167. In some embodiments, the associate application 167 includes an interface for communicating with, navigating, controlling, configuring, and/or using the associate interaction system 160. In some embodiments, the associate application 167 includes computer-executable program code portions for instructing the processor 164 to perform one or more of the functions of the associate application 167 described and/or contemplated herein. In some embodiments, the associate application 167 may include and/or use one or more network and/or system communication protocols.

The interaction interface 169. In some embodiments, the interaction interface 169 includes one or more output devices, such as a display and/or speaker, for presenting information to the user. In some embodiments, the interaction interface 169 includes one or more input devices, such as one or more buttons, keys, dials, levers, directional pads, joysticks, accelerometers, controllers, microphones, touchpads, touchscreens, haptic interfaces, microphones, scanners, motion detectors, cameras, and/or the like for receiving information from the user. In some embodiments the input/output devices may be the same device or a combination of devices that allow for the input or output of information to or from the user. In some embodiments, the interaction interface 169 includes the input and display devices of a mobile device, which are operable to receive and display information.

The associate interaction system 160 via the associate application 167 may receive and store the micro services on the memory 166. In this way, the micro services are small transferable modules that are built and designed to be stored on an associate device for pulling specific data points. Furthermore, the associate application 167 may refresh the deployed micro services for light analytics visualization at an associate interaction system 160. These micro services or widgets may be developed and deployed and positioned, via the associate application 167, at an interface level, such that associates within the entity may utilize the micro service to access data via any channel. Thus, the micro service may be stored on an associate machine and access the same data at every time, in a refreshed format. In this way, the associate may receive channel usage, access identification, account lifecycle information, account maintenance information, appointments, browsing, card data, communications, complaints, user maintenance, user transactions, inputs, document requests, software requests, offers provided to the user, and the like for each channel or for each user. The information provide to the associate may include one or more pictures of each of the requests based on the widget or micro services used by the associate.

Furthermore, in some embodiments, the associate application 167 may receive and allocate the plug in or implementation of additional micro services up-stream or down-stream of the already deployed micro services. These additional micro services may be received via the network 110 from the system 130. In this way, the associate application 167 may implement additional micro services on the associate interaction system 160 to perform a single function down-stream or up-stream of the function performed by the originally deployed micro services.

FIG. 2 illustrates a process flow for aggregating information associated with user interaction 200, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. Typically user interaction relates to managing the interaction between an entity and its users. These interactions may be handled across multiple different channels. In this regard, the process flow includes establishing a communication link with one or more interaction channels, as shown in block 202. In today's cross-channel user interaction environments, tech-savvy users have an array of communication options to choose from to get answers to their sales and user service questions. Users may call a toll-free number using their mobile device. Users may go online and self-serve via the next generation of self-service and Virtual Agent technologies. Users may also seek out or accept a chat or click-to-call option to bypass interactive voice response (IVR) systems and menus. Users may search an online community forum (company-run or user-run) to interact with the entity. In this regard, each action performed by the user while accessing the online community forum (e.g., online banking application) may be considered as individual interaction channels. Users may look for an SMS short code and text a question. They may even download the company's mobile app to access a mobile self-service answer agent, or pull up their mobile Web site and look for a mobile chat option. And, increasingly, users may post on social media platforms in hopes that a friend, follower, or an organization's representative will respond. With the proliferation of intelligent options available, organizations may be effectively able to classify users into specific communication channels based on their needs and behaviors.

These interaction channels are capable of being accessed by a user using a user input system (e.g., a computer system, mobile device, or the like). In some embodiments, the interaction channels may be an authenticated channel or an unauthenticated channel. In one aspect, an authenticated channel may be any interaction channel established by the entity. For example, authentication channels may include, but are not limited to, inbound phone calls from the user (via a toll-free number), instant messenger initiated via an online web portal associated with the entity, accessing an application associated with the entity, a physical location associated with the entity where the a user may be provided with walk-in service, or the like. In another aspect, an unauthenticated channel may be any interaction channel not established by the entity, but capable of being accessed by the entity as authorized by the user. For example, unauthenticated channels may include, but are not limited to, social media, email, browsing history, or the like. In yet another aspect, an unauthenticated channel may be any interaction channel established by the entity to be accessed by the user, but does not authenticate the user prior to retrieving data from the interaction channel. In some embodiments, regardless of the interaction channel (authenticated or unauthenticated), the user may be required to provide additional authentication credentials for verification of the user's identity. Examples of authentication credentials include, but are not limited to, username, contact information, a password, a PIN number, biometric information (e.g., physiological features such as fingerprints, finger vein and palm vein patterns, as well as iris and facial recognition to verify individual identities), a unique identification number associated with the user, social network information, an account number, or a card number. In some embodiments, the user information may be proprietary to the entity, such as an account number, a reference number to an account, a client number, or the like. In other embodiments, the user information may be public information, such as a phone number, mailing address, email address, or the like. In doing so, the data recorded may be associated with the user and/or other data already stored and associated with the user, retrieved from one or more other interaction channels accessed by the user.

In one aspect, the data retrieved from each of the one or more interaction channels are associated with a confidence level. Typically, gaining true user insight may require ensuring that the user and prospect contact data is accurate, up-to-date and available to support interactions at any touch point. In this way, an entity may be positioned better to target and communicate information to their users. Depending on the type of interaction channel, the entity may verify one or more identifying aspects of the user, including, but not limited to, address, e-mail, or the like. In addition, the entity may determine the completion of data associated with the user indicating whether or not all the data necessary to meet the current and future business information demand are available in the data resource. In this regard, data received from the user via an authenticated interaction channel, such as an online banking application associated with a financial institution, may have a higher confidence level compared to a an unauthenticated interaction channel, such as a browsing history associated with the user.

In some embodiments, entities may mange both inbound and outbound user interactions. Inbound interactions involve a user calling because they want something at that time, e.g., information about a product or help with a problem. This presents an opportunity for the agent associated with the entity to interact with the user who is ready to share information. Outbound interactions, on the other hand, are used to target particular user groups based upon the data an entity holds about them.

Next, as shown in block 204, the process flow includes determining a first user interaction associated with at least one of the one or more interaction channels. In some embodiments, the system may be configured to determine that a first user interaction based on one or more identification information associated with the first user via the interaction channel. For example, the user may have provided a name and telephone number prior to requesting information associate with a product and/or a service. In another example, the system may be configured to detect instances of the mention of an associated entity's name and determine social media account information associated with the user for identification of the user. In some embodiments, the system may be configured to receive an indication from the one or more interaction channels identifying a first user interaction. The indication may include a type of interaction channel, nature of the interaction, information provided, or the like.

In response, the process flow includes retrieving the data associated with the first user interaction in real-time (or near real-time) via the established communication link, as shown in block 206. In one aspect, the retrieved data may be in an unstructured format. Typically, unstructured data files often include text and multimedia content. Examples include e-mail messages, word processing documents, videos, photos, audio files, presentations, webpages and many other kinds of business documents. Note that while these sorts of files may have an internal structure, they are still considered “unstructured” because the data they contain doesn't fit neatly in a database. In some embodiments, data received from the one or more interaction channels may have different latencies. In such instances, the data from different latencies may provide a better insight about an entity, a user, transaction, or business process. By monitoring and retrieving every interaction channel, the system may be configured to provide the entity with proper insight into the business operations of the user and needs of the user, thereby creating a more unified view that correlates data from multiple interaction channels. In some embodiments, the system may be configured to extract one or more features of the data, combining data from disparate interaction channels, and selecting relevant features for processing.

Next, as shown in block 208, the process flow includes transforming the data from the unstructured data format to a structured data format. In some embodiments, the system may be configured to retrieve one or more templates for data taxonomy comprising one or more fields from a database for classifying content based on content types and/or creating a hierarchy in order for the system to know how to find content quickly. In some embodiments, record code is assigned based on business purpose or business group or line of business in order to classify content. The system may then be configured to parse the data based on at least the one or more fields associated with the one or more templates. In this way, the template for data taxonomy may be used to provide an ordered list of terminology approved for tagging or categorizing a set of content. In doing so, the unstructured data may then be transformed into a structured format. In some embodiments, in response to transforming the data, the system may be configured to store the structured data in a database associated with the entity.

In response, the process flow includes processing the structured data to identify a pattern associated with the first user interaction, as shown in block 210. In this regard, the system may be configured to identify a pattern based on the data retrieved from the one or more interaction channels. In one aspect, the structured data associated with the first user interaction may be placed in one or more queues to be accessed by the first user until a pattern associated with the first user interaction is identified. In some embodiments, the queue may be stored in a cache/volatile memory to faster access and efficient data retrieval. In another aspect, the structured data associated with the first user interaction may be stored in a database associated with the entity. In some embodiments, the system may be configured to identify a pattern associated with the first user interaction based on at least the structured data stored in the one or more queues. In another embodiment, the system may be configured to identify a pattern associated with the first user interaction based on at least the structured data stored in the database. In yet another embodiment, the system may be configured to identify a pattern associated with the first user interaction based on both the structured data stored in the database and the structured data placed in the one or more queues. In this way, the system may be configured to hold the structured data in the one or more queues until a pattern emerges. In some embodiments, the available structured data may be transmitted directly to the customer and/or to other departments within the entity that may utilize the structured data for customer relationship purposes.

Next, the process flow includes determining a goal associated with the identified pattern, as shown in block 212. In this regard, the system may be configured to compare the identified pattern with one or more predetermined patters stored in a database associated with the entity to determine a match. Each pattern may be associated with one or more goals. By matching the identified pattern to one or more predetermined patterns, the system may be configured to determine one or more goals the first user is attempting to achieve. As used herein, a “goal” may be any desired result that a user envisions, plans, and commits to achieve. In one aspect, the goal may be a personal goal such as buying a house, a professional goal such as applying for college, a financial goal such as investing in the stock market. In identifying a pattern and determining a goal associated with the pattern, the system may determine one or more actions that the entity (e.g., a financial institution) may take to aid the user in achieving the determined goal. For example, a financial institution, in response to determining that the user is looking into investing in the stock market, may gather information associated with the user's financial accounts, incoming funds, outgoing funds, average savings amount, or the like. In response, the financial institution may determine an optimal type of investment account for the user to enable the user achieve the goal. In addition, the financial institution may provide the user with one or more options to open an investment account and assign a financial advisor to the user's account, whereby the user may directly contact the financial advisor directly for additional information. In this way, the present invention provides the functional benefit of “looking ahead” for the user by identifying a goal that the user wishes to achieve based on information retrieved from the one or more interaction channels accessed by the user.

Next, as shown in block 214, the process flow includes initiating a presentation of an action interface comprising one or more actions to be performed by the second user. In this regard, the system may be configured to establish a communication link with the second user device to initiate a presentation of an action interface for display on the second user device. In some embodiments, the one or more actions performed by the second user aid the first user to achieve the determined goal. For purposes of the invention, the second user is an associate of the entity. For example, the second user may be an underwriter, a project manager, an IT specialist, a manager, an administrator, an internal operations analyst, bank teller or the like, capable of operating the system described herein. For example, if the goal associated with the identified pattern is purchasing a home, the one or more actions to be performed by the second user (e.g., an associate of the financial institution) may include, but are not limited to, retrieving information associated with the user, pre-approving the user for a loan, determining an optimal interest rate, providing location analysis for buying a property based on the user's current city of residence, or the like.

The associate associated with the entity may then determine which of the one or more actions are most applicable for the user to aid the user in achieving the desired goal. For example, the associate may determine that the user's pattern indicates that the user wishes to invest in real estate, but has not provided any information regarding where the user would like to purchase the property or what type of property the user wishes to purchase. In response, the associate may not provide the user with information, rather, the associate may pose one or more questions to the user regarding specifics of the user's goal, thereby receiving more information associated with the goal. In continuing with the example presented above, the associate may present on the user interface associated with the user's device, one or more questions such as, “What type of property would you like to invest in?”, “Which geographic location are you considering for your investment in real estate?”, or the like.

In response to determining which of the one or more actions are most applicable for the user, the process flow includes communicating information associated with the one or more actions to the user, as shown in block 216. In this regard, the system may be configured to establish a direct communication link between the second user device and the first user device to communicate the information. As described above, the associate may present one or more questions to the user to receive additional information associated with the user's goal, whereby the associate may be able to provide the user with accurate information using the additional information.

In some embodiments, the real-time data associated with user interaction may be stored in a real-time database system. Typically, a real-time database system may have a different performance goal, correctness criteria, and assumptions about applications, however, includes all features of a traditional database system such as data independence and concurrency control. In addition to the timing constraints that originate from the need to continuously track the environment, timing correctness requirements in a real-time database system also surface because of the need to make data available to the controlling system for its decision-making activities.

FIG. 3 illustrates a process flow for aggregation and transformation of real-time data 300, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. In this regard, the process flow includes determining a first user interaction associated with at least one of the one or more interaction channels, as shown in block 302. As described herein, the system may be configured to determine that a first user interaction based on one or more identification information associated with the first user via the interaction channel. In some embodiments, the system may be configured to receive an indication from the one or more interaction channels identifying a first user interaction. The indication may include a type of interaction channel, nature of the interaction, information provided, or the like.

Next, the process flow includes retrieving the data associated with the first user interaction in real-time (or near real-time) via the established communication link, as shown in block 304. In response, the process flow includes transforming the data from the unstructured data format to a structured data format, as shown in block 306. As described herein, the data retrieved from the interaction channels may not have a recognizable structure. The data may be unorganized and raw and can be textual and non-textual. For example, email may be unstructured textual data, as it includes time, date, recipient, sender details, subject, or the like, but an email body remains unstructured. Unstructured data may be identified as loosely structured data, wherein the data sources include a structure, but not all data in a data set follow the same structure. Transforming the data includes organizing the unstructured data using one or more predefined taxonomies and stored in a database in such a way that the structured data is readily searchable by simple, straightforward search engine algorithms or other search operations.

Next, the process flow includes identifying an error associated with at least a portion of the data, as shown in block 308. Typically, the errors may be a file format error, data content error, data matching error, and/or the like indicating that the data that is unrecognizable, incomplete, invalid, and/or the like. In this regard, if an error in the data is detected, the system may be configured to generate a report detailing the error. In some embodiments, the report may include one or more error codes that may be interpreted to identify the exact nature of the error.

Next, in response to identifying an error, the process flow includes determining a time stamp and an interaction channel associated with the portion of data identified to be in error, as shown in block 310. In this way, the system may be configured to determine when the error occurred. In doing so, the portion of data identified to be in error may be reviewed for data correction and re-processing. In response, the process flow includes replaying the data associated with the first user interaction retrieved from the determined interaction channel and the time stamp associated with the portion of data identified to be in error, as shown in block 312. In some embodiments, the time stamp associated with the portion of the data identified to be in error may include a starting time stamp and an ending time stamp. In one aspect, the starting time stamp may indicate a starting time associated with the portion of the data identified to be in error. In another aspect, the ending time stamp may indicate an ending time associated with the portion of the data identified to be in error. In this way, the portion of data identified to be in error may be identified accurately. In some embodiments, when the data retrieved from the one or more interaction channels are processed, the portion of data identified to be in error may not be processed. Once the data retrieved from the one or more interaction channels are transformed, the data is stored in the database. The portion data identified to be in error may then be replayed and prepared for re-processing.

In this regard, the process flow then includes processing the portion of data identified to be in error to rectify the error, as shown in block 314. In some embodiments, the portion of data identified to be in error may be manually processed to rectify the error. In some other embodiments, the portion of data identified to be in error may be automatically processed to rectify the error. In one aspect, rectifying the portion of data identified to be in error may include manually adding additional data. In another aspect, rectifying the portion of data identified to be in error may include dropping a portion of the data. In yet another aspect, rectifying the portion of data identified to be in error may include requesting retransmission of data from the interaction channel associated with the portion of the data identified to be in error. Once the portion of the data identified to be in error is rectified, the system may then be configured to transform the unstructured data into a structured format.

In response, the process flow includes storing the transformed portion of data in the database, as shown in block 316. In some embodiments, the transformed portion of data is stored in the database based on at least the time stamp associated with the portion of data identified to be in error. In this way, the system may be configured to maintain data continuity by storing the data in the database according to the starting time stamp and the ending time stamp associated with the portion of the data identified to be in error.

FIG. 4 illustrates a user interface 600, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. Once the data is stored in the database it may be accessed and/or illustrated via images presented to associates or users via interfaces. In some embodiments, interfaces may be directed to specifically requested information driven by micro services designed to extract and compile that specific type of data. In this way, the micro services may be utilized to create a light analytics for any number of queries requested. For example, one query may be how many users were at a particular entity store within the last 30 days.

In some embodiments, the user interface 600 may be user specific. In this way, the query for the user interface requests information about the user. As illustrated, the interface 600 provides the requestor with a view of the user based on channel activity. The interface 600, in this example is for User 1. The interface 600 comprises a user profile 602. The user profile 602 may be a quick view of the relationship the user has with the entity. This may be accounts the user has with the entity, rewards, or the like. The user profile may include a photographic representation of the user, such that an associate may recognize the user.

In some embodiments, the interface 600 may include the top opportunities 604 for the user. These may be offers, programs, or other benefits that may be identified as potentially being desired by the user based on the user's relationship, recent activities, channel usage, or the like.

As illustrated, the interface 600 further comprises a relationship summary 606. The relationship summary may include relationships that the user has with the entity and a status associated therewith. The relationship may include an account, a program, follow ups, appointments, or the like the user may have with the entity. Furthermore, the status, such as a balance, credit, pending, or the like may be assigned to each relationship.

Furthermore, the interface 600 includes information about the user's recent actions 608 and the user's channel usage 610. The recent actions 608 section includes a list of the last few actions a user performed in association with the entity. These actions may include a positive action or a negative action. The recent actions 608 section may also include a date and time associated with the action. For example, if the entity is a financial institution, the recent actions 608 may include credit card payments, deposits, withdraws, or the like. This may also include a location and time of each of the recent actions. The channel usage 610 section indicates the channel and the usage of that channel for the user over a period of time. In this way, it can be identified as to which channels the user tends to utilize the most when communicating with the entity.

As illustrated, the interface 600 further comprises a key enrolled services 612 section. In this section, the key services or products that the user is enrolled in may be graphically or pictorially illustrated in the interface. Finally, the interface 600 contains additional tabs that may be selected to drill down additional detail about the user.

FIG. 5 illustrates a process flow for providing a channel accessible single function micro service data collection process used for light analytics 400, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. Utilizing micro services the invention may start to build out a decoupled channel architecture, as illustrated in block 402. Typical channel architectures are tightly coupled, thus when an update or change is implemented to one or more parts of the architecture, it is not known what effect that change will have on other parts of the tightly coupled infrastructure. Thus, generating decoupled channel architecture allows for

As illustrated in block 404, the process continues by generating one or more single function small module micro services for channel use. These micro services are created to provide one function within the data collection process. The micro services are built as small transferable modules to be a single function high efficiency small module. In this way, the constructed micro services do not require high end server networks to run, but instead run via a simplistic process. In this way, the data collection process is easily constructed using one or more various micro services based on the entities required needs.

As illustrated in block 406, the process 400 continues by deploying the developed micro services at the interface level for any channel. The deployed micro services may pull data frequently and create a light analytic system. For example, a micro service can pull all data within a time frame that when to a specific channel, when to a specific channel for a particular purpose, or the like. The micro services will refresh regularly and pull any new data frequently.

Next, as illustrated in block 408, the process continues by allowing storage of the micro services on associate interaction systems. In this way, the micro services are small transferable modules that are built and designed to be stored on an associate device for pulling specific data points. As illustrated in block 410, the micro services allow for multiple refreshing of the deployed micro services for light analytics visualization at an associate interaction system. These micro services or widgets may be developed and deployed at an interface level, such that associates within the entity may utilize the micro service to access data via any channel. Thus, the micro service may be stored on an associate machine and access the same data at every time, in a refreshed format. In this way, the associate may receive channel usage, access identification, account lifecycle information, account maintenance information, appointments, browsing, card data, communications, complaints, user maintenance, user transactions, inputs, document requests, software requests, offers provided to the user, and the like for each channel or for each user. The information provide to the associate may include one or more pictures of each of the requests based on the widget or micro services used by the associate.

As illustrated in block 412, the process 400 continues by allowing plug in or implementation of additional micro services up-stream or down-stream of the already deployed micro services. In this way, the additionally implemented micro services may be implemented to perform a single function down-stream or up-stream of the function performed by the originally deployed micro services. Finally, as illustrated in block 414 the process 400 finishes by storing the data pulled by the micro services in a separate database for future light analytics.

FIG. 6 illustrates a process flow for a micro services data processing analytics framework 500, in accordance with some embodiments of the invention. The framework allows for processing of the raw interaction data that the one or more deployed micro services ingests. In this way, the framework provides for advanced operational execution not possible by the micro services. The framework allows for real-time analytics on interaction data. Furthermore, the framework may include pivot data or other user data other than interaction data that the framework may desire to pivot off of. This data may include, for example, user offers (accepted, denied, or received), geographic data, culture mapping, and the like. The pivot data may allow visualization of a holistic view of a user or customer to better service that customer.

As illustrated in block 504, the process 500 in initiated by receiving the raw interaction data from one or more deployed micro services in real-time. As illustrated on block 505, the process 500 continues by receiving or extracting pivot data associated with the user. The pivot data may include data about or associated with a user that the framework may utilize in association with the interaction data to provide a better user view. This data may include, for example, user offers (accepted, denied, or received), geographic data, culture mapping, and the like. The pivot data may allow visualization of a holistic view of a user or customer to better service that customer.

Next, as illustrated in block 506, the raw interaction data may be stored in a designated database. In some embodiments, the micro services may send and store the data. In other embodiments, the framework may receive the raw data from the micro services and store the interaction data in a designated database.

Next, as illustrated in block 508, the framework may perform processing of the raw interaction data. In this way, the system may structure the raw data and rearrange the data in real-time. The processing may include machine learning predictive analytics framework, business rule generation and creation, or the like. In this way, the framework performs complex analytics. For example, the processing may identify opportunities, identify how to act or approach one or more users, determine stalls in user/entity interaction, determine time usage for a process, or the like. As such, the system may apply machine learning and/or business rules to the interaction data based on analytics demands or requirements, as illustrated in block 510. In this way, the system may learn from the data received at the micro servers in real-time. Furthermore, the system may also accept business rules implemented by the entity to provide associates with flags or alerts when data triggers one or more of the rules.

Machine learning analytics includes artificial intelligence that allows a learning of how to communicate effectively with each user. In this way, the machine learning analytics includes a culture mapping of user such as languages, demographics, geographic location, or the like associated with the user.

In this way, the framework is embedding artificial intelligence and machine learning into a real-time interaction channel environment. In this way, the system may self-learn in real-time and/or self-heal in real-time. In this way, upon a negative interaction with a user, the system may learn and identify positive interaction characteristics for that user and implement them in the future, thus allowing for self-healing of channel interactions.

As illustrated in block 512, the system may continue to monitor the raw interaction data based on the implemented business rules and machine learning to issue future alerts if necessary. As illustrated in block 514, the system may calculate analytics and perform advanced operation executions based on the demands/requests and/or rules. A calculation, for example, may be to determine the time usage for a process and identify a typical time for that process to take. Then, the system may identify or flag real-time interaction data that indicates when the process took longer than the typical time frame. The system may generate an alert or other flag for associate review based on the analytics. Finally, as illustrated in block 516, the process is completed by presenting data in an interface picture based on the calculated analytics.
